Destination - SWEDEN!

Yesterday we decided to go and explore Sweden and what a good decision that was! Once again we were on our own as our kids had their own plans for the day. (It´s like being newly wed again! Just the two of us!)

We have had such bad weather over the last week but yesterday was absolutely gorgeous. It was sunny and warm, at least in Sweden! We caught the ferry across from Helsingør, it only take about 20minutes to cross over to Helsingborg in Sweden. We then went up to Kullen. It was such a beautiful place. The nature was fantastic!

We had made a picnic lunch from home, so when we arrived we ate our lunch. Funny thing was that Kristian had only made 2 pieces of dark bread for himself. I on the other hand had made loads of things. Even though I ate more than he did, I was the first one hungry and the first one looking for a restaurant to eat in!! Honestly!!!

Well, apart from all the eating we did we also must have CLIMBED miles today!! It was wonderful being in a place so hilly:-)

We just loved the nature and spent the whole afternoon walking, climbing or just sitting on the rocks talking! Oh yeah, there was also all the time spent taking photos!

Around 7pm we decided to head down into the little village and explore there. Again we were not disappointed. The place was wonderful, so full of atmosphere. We found a lovely restaurant overlooking the harbour and had a delicious meal there.

Kristian had a burger and chips.....

While I had lasagne and salad! It was really delicious! I would go as far as to say it was the nicest lasagne I have ever tasted!

We ended the evening by driving down to a lovely beach. Here we watched the sun go down. It was beautiful! (Doesn´t it look like Kristian wants to kill me!! haha) We caught one of the late ferries home and arrived home just before midnight. It has been a long but really great day!
